If I understand this properly, it means that if you want to use Google Buzz, your Gmail address becomes public and you can't hide it.
Whereas on twitter, people can't find out your e-mail address. That's quite important because the whole point of twitter is to offer this semi-public presence without being bombarded by email spam.

In my testing thus far, it matters little whether you’ve Picasa before – if you have a Gmail account, Picasa is also enabled on your account. And while individual Picasa albums have privacy controls, I have not found a way to block simply loading your Picasa home page.
